How to export hbm xml files using s#arparchitecture with fluent mappings - nhibernate

Question

This question was asked before but the answers all show how to export the hbm files from fluentnhibernate. We are using S#arpArchitecture which wraps fluent. I am able to export the schema but what I really want is the xml files to troubleshoot errors. I've done this using FNH before but adding S#arp to the mix has complicated things where I cannot figure it out.
I've found this question asked on several forums, but I can't find one that shows how to get the mapping files.

Answer 1

Here is how I do it in one of my projects:
[TestMethod]
public void CreateSchema()
{
var mappingOutput = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["xmlMappingOutputDirectory"];
var sqlOutput = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["sqlOutputDirectory"];
Configuration cfg = new Configuration().Configure();
var persistenceModel = new PersistenceModel();
persistenceModel.AddMappingsFromAssembly(Assembly.Load("ProjectName.Data"));
persistenceModel.Configure(cfg);
persistenceModel.WriteMappingsTo(mappingOutput);
new SchemaExport(cfg).SetOutputFile(sqlOutput).Create(true, false);
}
You will need to set the two keys in the your app config or provide values directly for them.

http://wiki.fluentnhibernate.org/Fluent_configuration#Exporting_mappings
In the Mappings call, you can do the following:
.Mappings(m =>
{
m.FluentMappings
.AddFromAssemblyOf<YourEntity>()
.ExportTo(#"C:\your\export\path");
m.AutoMappings
.Add(/* ... */)
.ExportTo(#"C:\your\export\path");
})

As it turns out that only works if you're not using automapping. Here's the solution if you're using automapping:
public void CanGenerateMappingFiles()
{
DirectoryInfo directoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo("../../../../db/mappings");
if (!directoryInfo.Exists)
directoryInfo.Create();
Configuration cfg = new Configuration().Configure();
var autoPersistenceodel = new AutoPersistenceModelGenerator().Generate();
autoPersistenceodel.Configure(cfg);
autoPersistenceodel.AddMappingsFromAssembly(Assembly.Load("TrackerI9.Data"));
autoPersistenceodel.WriteMappingsTo(directoryInfo.FullName);
}
You'll have to make sure that your configuration is set up correctly and that you choose an appropriate location for the directory, but otherwise this should work. It did for me.
